AOD-9604 & CJC-1295 & Ipamorelin (Stack) vs KPV
A detailed comparison to help you understand the differences and choose the right peptide for your research goals.
AOD-9604 & CJC-1295 & Ipamorelin (Stack)
A targeted fat loss stack combining AOD-9604 (the fat-burning fragment of HGH) with CJC-1295 and Ipamorelin for comprehensive body recomposition. This blend addresses fat loss directly while supporting lean mass through GH optimization.
Full details →KPV
KPV is a tripeptide (Lys-Pro-Val) derived from alpha-melanocyte-stimulating hormone (α-MSH). It retains the potent anti-inflammatory properties of the parent hormone without the tanning or other melanocortin effects.

| Aspect | AOD-9604 & CJC-1295 & Ipamorelin (Stack) | KPV |
|---|---|---|
| Mechanism | AOD-9604 stimulates lipolysis and inhibits lipogenesis without affecting IGF-1 or blood glucose. CJC-1295 and Ipamorelin provide sustained and pulsatile GH release to support metabolism and lean tissue. The combination targets fat loss through multiple mechanisms while preserving muscle. | Inhibits NF-κB activation and reduces inflammatory cytokine production. Enters cells and directly modulates inflammatory signaling without requiring melanocortin receptors. |
| Typical Dosage | Typical protocol: AOD-9604 200-400mcg, CJC-1295 100-200mcg, Ipamorelin 100-200mcg daily. Usually administered in the morning fasted or before exercise. | Oral/sublingual: 200-500mcg 1-3 times daily. Topical formulations for localized inflammation. Also used in enemas for gut inflammation. |
| Administration | Subcutaneous injection. Best administered fasted to maximize fat-burning effects. Can be taken as a pre-mixed blend or separate injections. Cycles typically run 8-16 weeks. | Can be taken orally, sublingually, or as suppositories/enemas for gut inflammation. Topical use for skin conditions. Stable orally unlike most peptides. |
| Side Effects | Mild injection site reactions, headache, nausea. Generally well-tolerated as AOD-9604 lacks many HGH side effects. | Generally very well-tolerated. Minimal systemic effects due to targeted anti-inflammatory action. |
